From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas Eugene Gifford (May 16, 1937 – October 31, 2000) was an American author of detective fiction.
He gained international fame with the crime novel The Glendower Legacy and later with the Vatican thriller The Assassini, both making up challenging theories about George Washington being a British spy & the Roman catholic church being kind of a mafia organisation. The Glendower Legacy was made into a movie in 1981 under the name Dirty Tricks.
Gifford also published under the names Dana Clarins and Thomas Maxwell.
He died of cancer in Dubuque, Iowa in 2000.
